Homoeopathy in Renal Care

Case of Paralytic Bladder

‘ Doctor I am not able to pass urine at all. I need a catheter. My life is just miserable. You are my last hope ’. 

This was a 70-year-old gentleman rushing in with great anxiety into my cabin. The doctors had advised him to undergo an operation to insert 

The catheter was into his bladder and lived with a bag tied to him. He has almost turned suicidal. This case was resolved completely with a few doses of Cantharis, as his problem had developed after having to control his urine for several hours during a journey. Similar other cases respond beautifully to Lycopodium or Causticum and many more remedies. Homeopathy has the potential to heal the overstretched bladder that has got paralysed, in most cases. 

The whole trick lies in understanding the individual case from all aspects and treating the human suffering from the ailment, and not just the disease. Is it not embarrassing to have incontinence or a leaking bladder? But few people are yet aware that Homeopathy has an answer.

Case of Ureteric Stone 

I once had a patient who was the son of a doctor couple suffering from a renal calculus or stone in his ureter. This is the connecting tube from the kidney to the bladder.

I was delighted to know that another pediatrician had referred him to homeopathy, knowing well that it can not only expel the stone but also heal the tendency that leads to the formation of stones. The child was a notorious storyteller. As he had no siblings he was by himself most of the time while his parents were away at the hospital. So while I was talking to him about himself he told me that he is planning to leave the school and study by himself on his research about space. He was so well-read about the subject that he could weave stories on it. He told me that he would see aliens and talk to them. And he went on to tell me so many stories about them. He seemed totally disconnected from reality and nearly convinced me how useless it was for me to become a doctor. The philosopher needed Sulphur. And after one dose, the stone was expelled out without much pain or discomfort within two weeks.  Well, this case is just to give you a glimpse into how we investigate a case, to understand the imbalance, and to initiate the process of re-harmonizing the equilibrium, with the help of homeopathy. 

The kidneys and the urinary tract being a vital complex organ system, need special care. And homeopathy has a huge role in helping exactly in that.
